About Advertising.

A few years ago advertising as an art
was unknown. A line or two, square
in the colume of some well-known
newspaper, the name Of firm with
title of its business, as they appeared
on its sign board, were all the most
venturesome dared assume. Gradually
the innovation of small bills, ugly,
inky, badly printed and carelessly dis
tributed, crept upward from "cheap
Johns into better reputation. and
some one stepped before his fellows
with shower of cards small squares
of rough paste board, with dash of
glaring color, an impossible leaf or
most unnatural bird. Now, there is no
end to the devices, the originality, the
wit and wisdom expended upon adver
Using. It's whole status has changed.
Merchants advertise not because their
goods need pushing off, but because, in
the pressure of new interests, new cases
long distances and wider competitor,
the people find it a great convenience
to be told where they can get what they
require. Sensational advertising was
once species of mild humbug. 1t is
now but another form of saving the
busy working world firm doing its own
thinking and investigating outside of
its own special line of life. The PEG.
pie are gradually becoming convinced
of this, and the few merchants who
have failed to see the sure and certain
end to which the growth of advertising
must lead. had better bestir themselves.
No firm, it is safe to say, which does
not advertise, and carefully, and with
certain dignity. need hope to hold out
successfully against those who do

ers. The faith Of Prof Knapp and
Pres. Chamberlain in these Holsteins
was shown last fall, in the purchase of
Grinnell to breed to these young COWS,
and to the heifers sired by Kleip, which
are owned by neighboring farmers; while
Kleip is still retained to head the head -,
and to answer the demands of the
farmers near by.
We nave in the past urged this pol
icy, but have not thus far induced any
of our farmers to invest in bull from
this famous herd which we some months
back advertised in the MIDLAND.
Young bulls can be purchased for 500
to $3.50 and one would soon pay good
interest on the capital invested to his
owner.

What Shall Be Done With the
M0nureP

This is puzzling question in the
spring to every careful farmer, who en-
deavOrs to secure from waste every
shovelful of manure &bout the premis-
es. Hauling out the yard manure in
the spring and spreading is heavy
job and to find time to do the work is
not the least of the difficulties that is
met. To leave the manure lie in the
yard till fall entails very considerable
loss as the majority OF our farmers are
circumstance. And with these con-
dictirg difficulties and the Fastening
of the season, the manure is generally
allowed to remain in the yards. The
most advanced farmers. however, have
supplied themselves with spreaders
which tear into shreds the long and
lumpy dung, and spread it evenly over
the land so that the practice of haul
ing out and dumping in small heaps in
rows over the field is, with them aban-
doned, and the coarse manure is hauled
along opposite sides of the field and
dumped in loads. The spreader is then
taken into the field and loading up is
driven directly across to the opposite
side spreading the manure fined and
evenly over the surface, The machine
is again filled on the opposite side and
driven back, sowing the manure, as it
were. with the evenness of drill. By
the use of the improved spreaders, yard
manure can be distributed rapidly and
evenly on the surface of any field,
whether the ground be freshly plowed,
or in grass or grain. To thus top dress
wheat fields in the spring, is of the
greatest advantage, and grass seed sown
on land thus MANFRED will never fail
to catch we'll. The meadows or pasture
fields can be top dressed with yard ma
nure in the same way and there will be
no Jumps or thick punches of straw or
long dung to smother grass or young
grain rs when spread with fork, even
in the most careful hands.
Where spreaders are used the tramp
ing and packing which are unavoidable
when the team has to be driven all
ove- the field to place the manure in
small piles or spread from the wagon
is avoided, which is of very great impor-
lance.
Putting stable manure on top is uni
versally conceded to be the proper way
to apply it, on whatever crop it is
used, and the work can only be done
properly and rapidly with a manure
spreadrr, and top dressing the wheat in
the spring is probably the most profit
able disposition which can be made of
barn yard manure.

Holsteln Dairy Hero.

The following from one of our West
ern agricultural papers contains some
points that may be profitable for farm
ers to consider in view Of the fact that
the signs Of the times indicate hat this
section Of country is about to follow
Chester, Delaware and other counties
of Pennsylvania, and enter into the
business:
AT the Iowa Agricultural College an
interesting change is being wrought in
the stock of milk cows. About five
years ago Prof. Knapp purchased FIVE
young fall blooded Hoiste in Fresian
cows, and headed the herd with Kleip,
sired 10y the famous bull Mooie. Since
that time the five cows have hardly
made failure in producing as many
calves annually. These have all been
sold for Sl25 to $500 each excepting
such as were kept to enlarge the herd
The COWS have all proved great milk
producers and are most profitable part
of the herd of cattle. K Ieip has been in
great demand to breed upon grade cows
of the local farmers at So per service.
Tie most interesting feature, how
ever, has been in crossing kle,p on The
grade cows of the College Farm herd.
This herd consists of 80 or 40 COWS.
some OF which are grade Short horns, a
few grade Jerseys, and two or three
grade Devons, and are kept to aid in
furnishing milk to the stewards depart
ment. Three years ago Prof. Knapp
began crossing Kleip ON the herd of
grade cows, partly as an experiment, but
manly because he saw that under the
peculiar circumstances there was money
in it. The farmers in the surrounding
country are in great part foreigners,
who had notdone II UGH grading up with
their cattle. They took fancy to the
